“Desert” by Spite House

Spite House, have joined Pure Noise Records for their new album, Desertion, dropping September 12th. Ahead of the LP’s release, the Montreal band are sharing a video for “Desert.” The band kick off their European tour on June 16th in Graz, Austria, then will hit North America for a tour with The Dirty Nil and Heart Attack Man.

Desertion explores grief with uncommon vulnerability as Lajoie depicts the immense pain and complicated emotions around the unexpected passings of both his parents. “When I was 17, my dad passed away from suicide,” he says. “Then ten years later my mom called me to tell me she had cancer, and ten days later she passed..Desertion is more about how these tragedies have informed so much of my life–it’s about trying to look them in the eye and reassess them as an adult. I want to move past them but I also want to take some kind of lesson from them.”
